President Donald Trump recently made headlines as several Tesla vehicles were delivered to the White House, where he selected a red Model S Plaid to purchase “at full market price.”
Trump revealed that the vehicle would feature a vanity plate reading “TRUTH.”
The president explained his decision to purchase the Tesla, saying, “Number one, it’s a great product — as good as it gets — and number two, because Elon Musk has devoted his energy and his life to doing this and I think he has been treated very unfairly.”
The Tesla Model S Plaid is known for its remarkable performance, boasting a 0-60 mph acceleration time of just 1.99 seconds. The vehicle is priced at approximately $95,000.
In addition to his purchase, President Trump addressed a growing issue with vandalism involving Tesla vehicles. He announced that he plans to categorize such acts as domestic terrorism. This move follows a series of incidents involving damage to electric vehicles, particularly Teslas, across various locations.
